Description of the problem | My car is throwing p0303 code cylinder 3 misfire and also loosing engine coolant. Car has gone into limp mode. There was a recall but it didn't fix the issue. There are several forums with many people having the same problem with mechanics telling them that its a head gasket issue and they need a new engine. My car has 109,000 miles. We replaced the spark plugs and switched the coils to see if the misfire would switch and it hasn't. We have drained and refilled the coolant and it is still loosing but no visible leaks. Car sometimes starts rough. |
